BS targeting me tilted me hard. There's no realistic way I step back and look at other wolf pairings at that point. I think Zark should have picked rekard as his convert. That would have been truly brilliant. I was honestly willing to go with rekard if he strongly stated that Zark was probably scum,...

I think if Zark was playing his best game, starting-wolf-Zark converts rekard 100% of the time. Whoever survives that lynch almost certainly survives the whole game if their counterpart flips wolf. So if Blindsniper's a wolf, Zark can't be.

Of course, Zark could have started as a wolf and he could have picked Blindsniper. That's not out of the realm of possibility. But FCM is quite frankly too unconcerned for my taste, thus the soul-read. If Zark's giving you serious wolf vibes and you want to take a stand on that, I'd honestly probabl...

If Zark claims Baron, turbo-lynch Zark. I don't think any other role is worth the lynch. Don't claim any other roles, since "revealed" is probably "revealed by GM" so you're just giving Blindsniper a free win. Why is Zark that much human? 1) If Zark starts as a wolf, he doesn't p...

I'm going to have to soul-read FairyCatMother as the last wolf. I'm assuming Blindsniper was the first wolf, and I don't think he picks stdio, so it's a tossup between Chriswulf and FCM. FCM is the safer choice, especially if Blindsniper knew he wouldn't have much time to play. Sorry, FCM. As consol...

It's worse than that. Presumably 5 humans and 1 wolf out of detention, wolf-Blindsniper in detention. I'm ejected and somebody is mauled. 3 humans left, 2 wolves, lynch-or-lose. If today we lynch a human Priest or a human Prince or Guard that misses their chance at life, we lose. If we lynch a wolf ...

I'm not even sure how we get out of this, besides Handmaid Roulette. If Zark is a Baron we have a chance to win. If stdio is the other wolf and his target doesn't random Prince, we have a chance to win. I'm not sure if there's any other realistic outs. Yuck. E: If we detain Blindsniper again and he ...

BS is a wolf. Second wolf is FCM, Chriswulf, or stdio. I'll think a bit and come up with what's more likely than the others. 90% sure Zark is human. 100% sure rekard is human. It's possible Admetus was part of Aldax's reveal, which is why he got mauled. But if we still have human-human reveal target...

(( So if Blindsniper doesn't flip wolf, the immediate question is: why was Admetus mauled? The wolves just saved us a mislynch that probably wins them the game if it happens. There's being devious, and there's sabotaging your own victory for the lulz ("Going full Ravebomb"). I mean, this d...

(( Admetus maul means Blindsniper is overwhelmingly likely to be a wolf here, I imagine. FCM's vote was a solid strategic choice when it was made to protect herself, but it did hop off of Blindsniper onto Admetus regardless. To me it really looks like it's her or stdio if Blindsniper flips Wolf. I s...

(( Zark's argument about singleton wagons is compelling. But we ARE talking about Blindsniper here. I've always figured he put about as much thought into his Day 1 vote as San or Visigoth does. If Admetus wasn't around at EOD yesterday either, then I'd be looking at him as a likely convert. If he sn...

(( I'd wagon potential converts that we can afford to lose. There's another point of data that could be useful too: the Gungnir maul makes sense when he was a singleton on Zark, but is an absolutely garbage decision after he switches to Jrs. That was within an hour of EOD, so there's a decent chance...

Who was being protected, if that's the case, FCM? Because that particular hunt includes popular human candidate rekard and known human gungnir. Stdio or Hellheart? (( I'll get my spreadsheet going and have vote timings up tonight when I get home from work, or after the nap I may immediately take. O...

Also, consider the possibility that Gungnir was one of the two. If a wolf is on the other end, he gets a free human claim. He can even muddy the situation a bit by waiting a day, saying he agreed with you, Hellheart, and then claiming he was a human and paired with <human-who-got-mauled-tonight>. I...

This clod has no idea that confessions are supposed to be PRIVATE! Of course I never do anything wrong, so I have nothing to worry about, but humans screw things up all the time! This Ravebomb...thing is in a lot of pieces. There's one here, a couple over there, oooh here's a big one underneath this...

I'm finally among ROYALTY again! Or what passes for Royalty here, anyway. I mean, you're nothing like the Diamonds back on Homeworld. They would squash you like bugs. And you spend your incredibly short, insignificant lives arguing over pointless details instead of, oh I don't know, trying to save y...

I just finished reading the thread here that talked about Zark's participation in the Mafia Championships I think I remember reading the entire thread for the first season, several years ago. Good humans from high-participation forums have a disproportionately high value in those games. 2+2's first ...

These two paragraphs made me chuckle so much that I have to repost them: I still think DOM is likely the last wolf. But it's possible that JRS should have sniped DOM two days ago, but didn't. Maybe he passed out drunk. Or masturbating. Or his mom grounded him (for masturbating). It really doesn't ma...

It's part of the role PM. Both ways. It's a neat twist on the normal lovers setup. Dferrantino hard-defended me on Day 3. We've voted together for the last few days. There was a possibility that he could be a witch, but given that his role was male...it would have been odd. So I assumed he was huma...

Well, we made the right call. Thanks for toughing it out with me, Rictus. It was a hell of a ride. E: I'm really happy with the way I played. I was more wordy and serious than I'd like to be in the future, but I was also more flexible and observant than I've been in the past. I was pushing scum for ...

I'm willing to buy what JRS is saying mainly because he's basically been checked out of the game and has been super hands-off. It feels like somebody trying to disappear rather than a player with an agenda. DOM has been triggering me for most of this game. I am heavily inclined to vote DOM here, but...

What if DOM is a fake wolf? Think about this from Admetus' POV: You're the Alpha. You just managed to lynch rekard over your fellow wolf at F7. You even got fake-alpha JRS to join in the snipe! You got this game in the bag. Then F5 says rekard is "not-a-wolf" and you're at *potential* lync...

Motherfucker. MOTHERFUCKER. Player loses ties. Player LOSES TIES. Remember when sphenodont and DOM were tied 3-3? Remember when rekard explicitly did not vote for either of them and just cast a very late off-wagon vote for Blindsniper? If rekard and DOM are on a team, and DOM targeted sphenodont (a ...

If rekard DID have an ally, the place to look would be the DOM-rekard wagons that killed rekard. Dferrantino votes for DOM, making it 2-2. This is less than 20 minutes before EOD. At that point, Admetus is on rekard and I am on DOM. rekard votes for Rictus. DOM switches from Admetus to rekard 6 minu...

I believe that DOM does have the power he claims to have. My worry with DOM's claimed power is that it can very easily be a neutral power Human Vote Powers: ⋅ Targeted player wins ties ⋅ Targeted player's vote is nullified ⋅ Targeted player's vote is doubled Non-Human V...

Rekard as a wolf traitor is a really interesting theory. That would remove the need for another player to be on rekard's team. The biggest issue with that is simply that Admetus got sticky on rekard and wouldn't move away. If he believes that rekard is a wolf, then killing DOM almost always wins it ...

I'm not sure why stdio used his power on himself, but it really looked like that's what happened. stdio nullified his own vote and then intentionally navigated himself into a suicidal tie? I find that really, really, really unlikely. No. Stdio nullified his own vote with the intention of voting lat...

Rictus is lock human as far as I'm concerned. I'm human. Everyone must, in fact, concede that I'm human unless they are willing to assert one of the following: 1) Blindsniper's a chatty fellow who makes unprompted non-voting posts. So that didn't have to be a peek post. OR 2) I am both an Alpha and ...

I do not have any powers beyond simply not dying as long as dferrantino was alive. If I had any other power, it would be a vote manipulation power - which I would have used - or it would have been something nasty - which I would have also used. I figured you were the GA, Rictus, but I started gettin...

Protection from everything until one or more other players die is a power in and of itself. It's probably the strongest ability in Werewolf. You don't add MORE powers to that. E: The other issue with voting me is that it only makes sense if I'm a neutral. Otherwise, you're voting for a human. Which ...

I'm sorry, DOM, but I can only answer Rictus' question with a lot of metagaming. It might be best if you don't open the spoiler below. You have more info than me. You have a special power that you haven't revealed. WHY WERE YOU PROTECTED? I was protected because it made sense both in terms of fl...

I remember when Admetus said that we'd lost because he couldn't convince me of the obvious scenario. I paced around for like 45 minutes, angry at myself. The obvious scenario was 2 neutrals. And I was so focused - SO FOCUSED - on how human DOM was that I never thought about how fucking off Rictus wa...
